[Rebirth] [1970s] [Countryside] [State Banquet Cooking] [Gorgeous Wife] [Building a Fortune]
In his previous life, Shen Feng was bled dry by Zhou Yumei and her family. His parents died miserably when they couldn't afford treatment, and his younger sister, abused by Zhou Yumei's brother, threw herself into a well and died in despair.
He made a fortune worth hundreds of millions with his extraordinary state-banquet pastries and sugar art, but Zhou Yumei and his nemesis Zhao Tiezhu set him on fire and killed him. Only as he lay dying did he learn that the son he'd raised for twenty years was Zhao Tiezhu's illegitimate child!
When he opened his eyes, he was back on the day of his engagement.
In front of everyone, Shen Feng tore the marriage contract to shreds, making his nemesis take the unwanted bride off his hands.
After shedding that leech, Shen Feng turned and headed for the dilapidated cowshed at the end of the village, where the wind whistled through the walls.
There, huddled inside, was Su Yunjin, the fallen descendant of an imperial chef.
The villagers all laughed that Shen Feng had gone mad. He'd passed up the village beauty to take in a "little jinx" with a face covered in soot.
They had no idea that once the soot was washed away, Su Yunjin would reveal not only a cool, breathtaking beauty, but also a family-inherited talent for seasoning!
With just two jin of flour, she created a culinary masterpiece. Her "Auspicious Cranes Bring Longevity" dish stunned county officials, and people came from far and wide to claim her!
With his state-banquet-level culinary presentation and imperial court dough-sculpting skills, Shen Feng led Su Yunjin from catering at commune banquets all the way to the provincial capital, quietly amassing a fortune.
